Binary Boy

A 12-year-old orphan, Devin has never met another living humannot that he remembers. But he has seen too many of the other kind.
The virus is to blamethe outbreak that killed the whole crew of his spaceship when he was practically a baby. Now all he knows of humans is dead ones he has seen, terrifyingly encased in glass.
The spaceship is as silent as a tomb. Ghosts seem to pervade its silent corridors. But the ship is the only home he knows.
Just like the only friends he knows are his caretaker robots, Ark and Rue. Ark is a motherly figure, all roundness and generosity, whereas Rue the engineer is more angular and brusque, whom Devin views as a father.
Terrified of his human mortality, Devin wants to stay with his robot friends forever, to become a robot himself, to become immortal.
But the robots have other ideas. They are resolutely steering the ship back to Earth, where they intend to drop him off so he can take his rightful place among the humans.
Devin fights the decision with every ounce of his energy. The robots are all Devin knows of love, and he is determined to stay with them at any cost.
But when an explosion disables the ship, he is faced with a terrible choice: to risk joining the crew in death or to leave his only friends forever to live among humans that terrify him.
Only one thing is certain:
The journey ahead will be one of fear and peril.
Will Devin find his way to Earth to discover what it means to be humaneven if it means becoming someone completely different?
